which accounts for her rather robust

the year before he died-gave her $40

her pocket. OF she went, the next day to

eat her fill, childlike. She happenedst to be
near the fence, when she saw two Ill LOOK

some coppice and watched them, fearing
to let them see her. Presently young

forced the $40 gold piecs In his hand, and
by that time, suppose, got frightened at

declared he wouldn't give her anything

A Probably Fatal Accident

George w. Swaymeir, foreman of
the bridge gang employ ed at Muddy
creek, three miles west OF the city.
met with terrible and probably fatal
accident yesterday. The gang were
engaged removing the false trestles
after repairing the bridge and as the
last one was being taken out it fell IN
such manner as to catch Mr.. Sway
meir under the heIvy timbers in such
a manner as 10 crush both his legs.
He WIS Immediately brought to the
city and taken to the hospital where
an examination revealed the impossi-
mlity of saving either limb and both
were accordingly amputated, one above
and the other below the knee and he
was made as comfortable as possible
under the circumstances. The physi-
clans express grave doubts as to his
recovery owing to the great exhaus.
ton and terrible shock incident to
such injuries. His mother sas tele-
graphed for at Holden amt arriv-
ed on last nights train to minis .er at
his bedside. Mr.. Swaymeir is one OF
the best and most trusted employees in
the Missouri Pacific bridge depart
ment and has the confidence and re,
spect of both the officers and the men
under him. 1t is to be sincerely hop.
ed that he may finally recover. Anoth.
er of the men was injured by the fall.

Texas Parker Sent to Jail to
Await the Action of the
Grand Jury.

In Justice Fishers court Texas
Parker was arraigned on the charge
of attempt at arson in the first degree
for sitting fire to the city Jail last Sat
urday week, quite an array of w.t.
nesses were summoned on both sides,
VIII ID. Steele appearing for the de-
Tense and attorney Sangree represent
ing the state. The evidence was con-
elusive and after listening TO de-
mand from Steele for the release of
the prisoner on the ground
that he was too drunk
to know what he was doing and that
the defense had not caused its wit
nesses to swear that Sedalia' jail was
in Sedalia and that Sedalia was in
Pettis county and Peltis county in
Missouri and Missouri in tn United
States of America and the United
States in North America. His honor
said he did not consider the matter of
venue in a preliminary hearing a mat.
ter Of vital import and as for the
drunk part, since the defendant had a
very clear idea of everything else
which transpired ON the day of the
arson, he doubtless knew what he was
doing. In default of $500 bail, Par.
ker was committed to await the action
of the grand jury.
The only other case was that Of
VIM. Ellis, charged with stealing
a dressed chicken from the store OF
Rod Gallie and disturbing the peace
